In a certain code language, 'QUOD' is written as 'GCIT' and 'CRY' is written as 'UFY'. How will 'QUIP' be written in that language?

  1. A
    GHCO
  2. B
    GCOH
  3. C
    GCHO
  4. D
    GHOC

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's identify the pattern by examining the alphabetical positions of letters:
1. QUOD -> GCIT
Looking at opposite pairs or shifts:

Opposite of Q is J (27−17=10). J−3=G (10−3=7)

Opposite of U is F (27−21=6). F−3=C (6−3=3)

Opposite of O is L (27−15=12). L−3=I (12−3=9)

Opposite of D is W (27−4=23). W−3=T (23−3=20)
Pattern: Opposite letter −3

2. CRY -> UFY

Opposite of C is X (24). X−3=U (21)

Opposite of R is I (9). I−3=F (6)

Opposite of Y is B (2 or 28). 28−3=25 (Y)
The pattern matches.

3. QUIP -> ?

Opposite of Q is J (10). 10−3=7→G

Opposite of U is F (6). 6−3=3→C

Opposite of I is R (18). 18−3=15→O

Opposite of P is K (11). 11−3=8→H

Combining these gives GCOH.
